COLBY CASSANI ENDOWED LECTURESHIP SERIES (CCELS)

The Colby Foundation awards the Colby Cassani Endowed Lectureship Series to qualifying schools of medicine. Our endowment funds a permanent place in the awarded school's curriculum for education about organ, eye, and tissue donation. We invite you to inquire about this endowment. Or read more about recent and upcoming lectureships.

OUR ASSISTANCE: The Colby Foundation helps schools seeking our endowment in two ways. We are available to assist with the application process, and we support the Lectureship directly.

We can assist you with the application process by sharing an outline of a CCELS that was implemented successfully at another school. that can help you create a series modeled after a Colby Foundation Endowed Lectureship Series. Or, you can submit a unique proposal as long as it meets our minimum requirements above.

The Colby Foundation supports Lectureship recipients by providing:

a biennial endowment to qualifying schools;

contact information for medical/scientific and organ procurement speakers, if needed;

the recipient or donor family perspective by offering Starla Cassani and others to speak;
